Columnist: Congress Should Charge Obama With Treason

Fox News contributor and WorldNetDaily columnist Erik Rush has written a new column calling on the Republicans in the House of Representatives to charge President Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with treason over Benghazi, noting that simply impeaching him wouldn’t be enough.

He begins by writing “I sincerely hope that Rep. Trey Gowdy, R-S.C., and his colleagues on the newly minted congressional select committee tasked with investigating the 2012 terrorist attack on the U.S. mission in Benghazi, Libya, have the belly for what they will most certainly uncover if they are duly committed to finding the truth. This is because there is so much more to this debacle than most engaged conservatives know, let alone the average American news consumer.”

Rush states that the Benghazi evidence is “indicative of a widespread plan to undermine American national security, foreign policy and the Constitution, all the while galvanizing our government’s power over us and the personal sway of players such as the Clintons, Obama, and their political affiliates.”

Then he concludes with “The extent of these machinations, both in terms of time and scope, is positively dizzying. Whether this serial treason was taken on for reasons of narcissism, power and a false sense of invulnerability (as I suspect it was for the Clintons), or due to an abiding hatred of America and the desire to see her brought low (as was most certainly the case for Obama and his mixed bag of Marxist and Islamist ideologues), it still spells serial treason. Whether the Select Committee on Benghazi will settle for the impeachable offenses (which will be essentially worthless in the practical sense), or the treasonable ones, again, remains to be seen.”

Mind you, Rush isn’t one of the conservatives who believe “someone covered up something,” Rush actually believes Obama “orchestrated the Benghazi attacks given his connections to the Muslim Brotherhood and legendary understanding of all things Islamic.”
